Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for creating a pattern on a workpiece sensitive to radiation, such as a photomask a display panel or a microoptical device. The apparatus comprises a source (602) for emitting electromagnetic radiation, a spatial modulator (601) having multitude of modulating elements (pixels), adapted to being illuminated by said radiation, and a projection system (604) creating an image of the modulator on the workpiece. It further comprises an electronic data processing and delivery system (607) receiving a digital description of the pattern to be written, extracting from it a sequence of partial patterns, converting said partial patterns to modulator signals, and feeding said signals to the modulator, a precision mechanical system (605) for moving said workpiece and/or projection system relative to each other and an electronic control system coordinating the movement of the workpiece, the feeding of the signals to the modulator and the intensity of the radiation, so that said pattern is stitched together from the partial images created by the sequence of partial patterns. According to the invention the drive signals can set a modulating element to a number of states larger than two. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A drive for an inverse kinematics device with two parallel axles moved in opposing directions and non-uniformly rotating. The axles have an angular relationship and the drive is supplied externally by at least one essentially uniformly rotating axle. Each of the axles carries an oval wheel, wherein the ovality of the wheels correspond to the angular relationship. The oval wheels are firmly fixed to the associated axle. The periphery of the oval wheels is designed for the positive acceptance of a traction element. At least one uniformly rotating wheel is provided having a periphery designed for the positive acceptance and drive of the traction element. Two traction elements are provided for the transmission of turning moments and power from one of the uniformly rotating wheels onto the oval wheels. Each drive line includes a wheel, traction element and an oval wheel containing an elastic element, which can compensate for impairment of the constancy of peripheral velocity of the oval wheels.

Abstract: The device is a snap buckle with a safety feature-an additional catch which prevents the buckle from being inadvertently disengaged. A male plug, having side catch arms and a central member with an additional catch, forms one part of the device. A female socket having a depressible member forms the other part of the device. To engage, plug and socket are urged together until the side catch arms, and the additional catch on the central member, both engage the socket. To disengage, the depressible member is depressed to disengage the additional catch on the central member, while simultaneously the side catch arms are depressed to disengage them from the socket.

Abstract: The invention relates to an evaporator arrangement for cooling refrigeration chambers in a refrigerating device such as a refrigerator, a combination refrigerator and freezer or similar, comprising at least two series-connected evaporators (11, 16) which are arranged one behind the other in a single-circuit refrigeration system. One of said evaporators has a plate-type configuration (12, 17) and has a lower refrigerating capacity than the other. Both evaporators (10) are uniformly cooled by at least one refrigerant channel (13) for guiding the refrigerant. At the end of its course on the evaporator with the higher refrigerating capacity, said refrigerant channel extends into the section of the evaporator with the lower refrigerating capacity (16) that is allocated to the area of the refrigeration chamber cooled by this evaporator (16) that heats up the most (A). The refrigerant channel then extends from this area (A) across the remaining surface of the evaporator with the lower refrigerating capacity.

Abstract: A dry powder, for example, a medicament for an inhaler, comprises elongated particles with an aspect ratio sufficient to cause the particles to be bound to a preferably metal or non-metallic sheet material substrate at the particle tips by electrostatic deposition and for aligning a plurality of particles with their major axes aligned normal to the substrate and oriented tip-to-tip. Particles deposited form a low density, high relative void deposition to minimize attractive forces between the particles. This minimizes agglomeration and bonding forces to the substrate facilitating the release of a powdered medicament in an inhaler. Medicament dosages in a substrate pocket are covered by a sealing layer. An embodiment of a drug dosage inhaler substrate and inhaler is disclosed.

Abstract: A desired acoustic signal is extracted from a noisy environment by generating a signal representative of the desired signal with processor (30). Processor (30) receives aural signals from two sensors (22, 24) each at a different location. The two inputs to processor (30) are converted from analog to digital format and then submitted to a discrete Fourier transform process to generate discrete spectral signal representations. The spectral signals are delayed to provide a number of intermediate signals, each corresponding to a different spatial location relative to the two sensors. Locations of the noise source and the desired source, and the spectral content of the desired signal are determined fron the intermediate signal corresponding to the noise source locations. Inverse transformation of the selected intermediate signal followed by digital to analog conversion provides an output signal representative of the desired signal with output device (90). Techniques to localize multiple acoustic sources are also disclosed. Further, a technique to enhance noise reduction from multiple sources based on two-sensor reception is described.
